Now with the big storm past us (I’m knocking on wood), we can take a deep breath and get back to things as normal. It is tough to think about the fact that we have cleared the halfway point of the summer, and we are beginning our stretch of the final three weeks. So much has happened this summer, but at the same time the days and weeks have flown by so quickly. Yet, we are not a staff that gets too sentimental until the final kids leave in August.
This week, we have some really exciting evening activities coming up with “Predator vs. Prey” tomorrow night and “Survivor Night” on Wednesday. “Predator vs. Prey” has cabins in either a bug, frog, snake or hawk group. These groups must make their way around camp to find food, water and shelter in order to survive. However, groups higher on the food chain are able to hunt groups lower than them. Cabin groups must run, hide and sneak around in order to survive throughout the night.
“Survivor Night” is based on the popular TV show, except for the fact that we don’t have Jeff Probst. Cabins are a part of one of two survivor groups that must compete in different challenges around camp. Their placing in each activity will add points to their larger survivor group. The survivor group with the most points by the end of the night will be the winners.
